Yeah, they're just cousins... Bubbles isn't mine, she's my friend's. He was showing me some twisty mountain roads. Getting up to that church was a lot of fun, going down was an absolute blast!

I Plasti dip-ed as a test to see if i liked the look..planned on picking up black ones to replace the stock.. but honestly i'll probably wont bother with re-badging... waste of $... Spray looks damn good even when i half-assed it as a test. I pealed it off.. and did it proper. Learned a few tips along the way i can share if your looking to do it...

Absolutely.

I've got a white FR-S on the way and definitely want to black out the front and back badges, possibly also the 86 logos on the sides.

I've watched a bunch of the how-to videos but any advice would be much appreciated.

Do you have any closer photos of the badges?

^^ i see you even went wheel-to-the-curb! good man!

Not sure if this belongs here since it's a BRZ but I spotted this in Sydney (the car hasn't been officially released here yet). Just my luck that the Sydney Opera house was right behind it. Excuse the crappy phone camera quality. :happy0180:

Aren't you SUPPOSED to do that? Hate to see what happens when someone's parking brake fails...

yep, you get a ticket if the parking inspector sees your car with the wheels straight. such are the slopes of SF.
